AMC brings Los Pollos Hermanos pop-up to New York

AMC Networks is set to open a Los Pollos Hermanos pop-up restaurant in New York City.

Los Pollos Hermanos-themed pop-ups in New York and Los Angeles

The restaurant featured in television series Breaking Bad and the pop-up, which was first unveiled at this year's SXSW festival, is being staged to tie in with the launch of season three of Better Call Saul, which premieres on AMC on 10 April.

AMC has partnered with Citizens Parking, one of the largest parking companies in the US, to offer fans the opportunity to enjoy show character Gustavo Fring’s famous curly fries in New York. The menu at the SXSW festival featured breakfast tacos, burritos, burgers and bags of curly fries with several dipping sauces. The New York pop-up will be open from 9-10 April at Pearl Street, while a similar pop-up was staged earlier this week in Los Angeles, from 29-30 March.

Season three of Better Call Saul follows the twists and turns of Jimmy McGill’s devolution toward Breaking Bad’s Saul Goodman – Albuquerque’s most notorious criminal lawyer and is set six years before he meets Walter White from Breaking Bad.
